Descrição: The indicators that were measured in the research were grip strength, five-repetition sitto-stand test, walking speed, Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) test, Timed Up-and-Go (TUG) test, and commitment to treatment. Left-hand grip strength and lower limb functioning, measured via TUG, demonstrated statistically significant improvements over the study period. The participants showed satisfactory self-assessed commitment to exercise, and this indicator increased significantly during the study period. The research findings are relevant because older adults need physical activity and exercise interventions to maintain their physical functioning, prevent functional impairment, and support activities of daily living.
